Basically, concepts and techniques developed by the authors in other works are applied to repetitive manufacturing systems in this paper. Linear programming problems defined on the incidence matrix of the underlying Petri nets are used to compute tight upper and lower bounds for the performance measures of job-shop systems and decision-free kanban systems in polynomial time on the net structure. The results can be extended to other models in which some decisions are allowed, such as producer-consumer systems with mutual exclusion. Exact performance measures for a class of systems containing sequential processes can be computed in polynomial time.
